The ASA Codes and Standards team hit the ground running in 2024 by attending major standards/model codes meetings impacting our members. ASA continues to be committed to representing ASA members and being the voice of the PHCP/PVF supply chains in the development of sound and fair standards and codes. In addition, ASA Codes and Standards staff represent both HARDI and the Water Quality Association (WQA), through partnership agreements, at these meetings.
ASA is represented as a voting member on the ASME A-112 Standard Committee. The ASME A112 standards create a comprehensive series comprised of more than 40 plumbing standards that provide expectations for performance and tests for a wide range of plumbing products and assemblies. Many of the ASME plumbing standards are harmonized with the Canadian Standards Association plumbing standards so participation on the A-112 Committee provides additional value in having a voice on how Canadian standards impact plumbing products.
